Air pollution in the national capital, Delhi, has reached extremely hazardous levels, making it the most polluted major city in the world. According to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), the Air Quality Index (AQI) here has crossed 403, which falls under the ‘Severe’ category. Due to dense smog and toxic air, visibility on roads has significantly dropped, causing severe breathing difficulties and commuting challenges for motorists and citizens alike. Despite the implementation of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) every winter, the situation remains unchanged.
